    Saw an awesome movie – documentary yesterday – Seed: The Untold Story!
    https://www.seedthemovie.com/
    Seed

    Very Eye-opening!

    Taken from FB post:
    Few things on Earth are as miraculous and vital as seeds — worshipped and treasured since the dawn of humankind. This documentary follows passionate seed keepers who are protecting a 12,000 year-old food legacy. In the last century, 94 seed varieties have disappeared. A cadre of 10 agrichemical companies, including Syngenta, Bayer, and Monsanto, controls over two-thirds of the global seed market, reaping unprecedented profits. Farmers and others battle to defend the future of our food.

    There are a couple of “end of world” movies where they store seeds. The seeds are from all things so when Earth has healed herself from human annihilation.

    What we don’t see is Agri-business who are behind it.

    Deadliest Mass Shooting In Canadian History Remembered

    “Today, Canada remembers 14 students from Montreal, all female, who lost their lives after a gender-based shooting in 1989.

    Today is National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.

    December 6th marks the deadliest mass shooting in Canadian history, where 14 women were killed in 1989 at L’École Polytechnique de Montreal because they were “feminists”.”

    What an uplifting quote PG!

    I recall exactly where I was when this tragedy happened. Waiting for a dance class at the “Y des Femmes”/Women’s Y.

    Woo – hoo…finally a Cat Café will be opening this Spring in Brewtown/Milwaukee – WI near my n’hood!
    https://onmilwaukee.com/dining/articles/sip-and-purr-cafe-east-side.html
    Sip & Purr Cat Cafe has found a home:
    “The East Side is really an ideal spot,” notes McHugh. “There are no neighborhood cat adoption centers in the area. So, we’ll really be providing a service to people in the area. I think it’s also an advantage to be in proximity to UW-Milwaukee; they’ve proven that spending time with cats reduces stress, so this could be a haven for students who are working on papers or studying for exams.”
    (approx 1mile from my home) 🙂
    The new cafe will feature two separate rooms – a cat-free cafe and an interactive cat lounge where folks can enjoy time with a group of 8-12 felines from the Lakeland Animal Shelter in Delavan.

    Same rule in our 2 kit cafés I believe, JK.

    Although when I visited our café I did wonder if I’d have to effect a wardrobe change before entering my place in the event that Dorry would sniff out the café kits and think that I’d been cheatin’. 😉

    Anyway there are enough kits there to love! Don’t think doggies are allowed either (although our city does have a doggie café, that’s vegetarian/vegan). Kids under a certain age are not allowed in kit cafés either.

    Dutch news show Nieuwsuur was interviewing Polish academic Jerzy Targalski about the controversial forced removal of Poland’s top Supreme Court judge when Targalski’s cat Lisio demanded a moment in the spotlight.

    “They didn’t even know that they were alive up there.”
    Kudos for 4 Kitten Survivors! 🙂
    Four kittens were found in debris when they survived a roof collapse in a Florida house hit by #HurricaneMichael. Rob Marciano has the incredible survival story. https://abcn.ws/2PrvgXa

    OMG ! I hope we hear more about these ‘surprise’ kittens and how they are doing.
    Terrible damage from Michael and five deaths too. So sad.

    While this site is not for politics, this short clip on Khashoggi and a pretty tabby cat gives an idea of his character:

    He is giving a historical lecture while Tabby jumped on his lap.
